OVERTOUN BRIDGE

Something truly strange is going on at the Overtoun Bridge in West Dunbartonshire, Scotland: nobody knows why dogs keep flinging themselves off the large bridge that reaches from Overtoun House. Is there something in the foliage around the castle or could the sins of past owners be haunting the land?
